After going back and forth whether or not I would attend Ultra Music Festival I finally decided this was the year. I was tapped by VIBE magazine to shoot Ultra Music Festival for week 2 and a flurry of events elsewhere in Miami amid Winter Music Conference (or Miami Music Week). After watching the livestream online, I couldn’t hold out anymore. Just days before the start of week 2 I bought a roundtrip plane ticket that set me back more than I want to admit.

If you haven’t been to Miami, it’s a bit of a serene place. The colors, weather, outdoors eating, culture, and emphasis on music make it unlike anywhere else in the US. Sure New Orleans has many of those qualities, but they lack crystal waters and palm trees.

I touched down in Miami on Thursday and started off with lunch on Ocean Drive where drinking … Read more

Dim Mak ringleader Steve Aoki will be showcasing not only his music, but most likely his cake-throwing skills on Thursday, December 27th, at Pier 94 in Manhattan for what he’s dubbed “Aokify NYC”. The obvious question here would be: What exactly does it mean to be “Aokified”? Here are some of our best guesses: It means converting a few thousand individuals into one enormous and energetic mass, much like an ocean — able to send Steve on a wild and wavy rafting journey. It means you will be subject to appeasing the party Gods of the highest order, and that you will have Steve’s tenacious beats to help you through your journey. It means you should probably stop second guessing yourself and just buy a ticket already. Oh, and if you weren’t already sold, let us inform you that the super sexy NERVO twins will be opening.

Keith Robertson & David Henderson were an interesting duo based in Toronto, who used to be indie band producers. They decided to switch over to the house music side of production once they smoked some marijuana at the age of 17 and listened to Groove Armanda’s first album. Currently, the two are signed to Dim Mak records along side Steve Aoki and have the rare talents to produce almost anything from electro, techno, Dutch house, rave, rock, & indie-rock genres. Their first huge release on Dim Mak was called “Gladiator”, which got remixed by the likes of Aoki/AM, Klever, Larry Tee/Alexander Technique, The Faint, AC Slater & Milano. One of their latest attention grabbing remixes was to Tiesto’s “Work Hard, Play Hard”, & now they are back to bring us a electrifying remix to Korn ft. Skrillex’s relatively new track- “Get Up”. ENJOY!
